DAILY HERALD
— Car fee, tax would wipe out graduated tax plan’s savings for many in Illinois – Jake Griffin (DIERSEN: While I own seven vehicles, I drive them very little because I spend 10+ hours each and every day putting GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails together and sending them out. Only one of the seven is over 25 years old. Six times $50 is $300.) 
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20190605/car-fee-tax-would-wipe-out-graduated-tax-plans-savings-for-many-in-illinois
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The average Illinois car owner would pay an extra $50 a year to register it and about $95 more annually to gas it up. The motor fuel tax hike would go into effect July 1, but the registration fee increase wouldn’t happen until the first of the year. Money generated by the increases would pay for road construction and other public works projects throughout the state, which Pritzker and other backers say are long overdue and will create jobs. The fees also include a 6% daily and 9% monthly tax on parking in garages and lots, a $1 increase in the per-pack cigarette tax to $2.98 and changes in the tax structure for online purchases.)

— Trump says he “would’ve been honored” to serve in Vietnam War (DIERSEN: I should write a book about those who have punished me the most since 1966 for my getting four student draft deferments 1966-1970 and a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971.)
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-says-honored-serve-vietnam-war-us-military-medical-deferment-bone-spurs-piers-morgan/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Mr. Trump’s medical deferment from the draft came up repeatedly during his campaign for the White House in 2015 and 2016, and has resurfaced as a talking point among his Democratic challengers ahead of the coming election in 2020. South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg accused President Trump last month of using his “privileged status to fake a disability” to dodge the draft during the Vietnam War. “This is somebody, who I think it is fairly obvious to most of us, took advantage of the fact that he was a child of multimillionaire in order to pretend to be disabled so that somebody could go to war in his place,” Buttigieg said of Mr. Trump. During the presidential campaign in July 2015, the Trump campaign said Mr. Trump had a “medical deferment for bone spurs on both heels of his feet.” The statement also said that Mr. Trump entered the military draft lottery and had received number 356 out of 365. “When the draft occurred, they never got near his number, and he was therefore exempt from serving in the military,” the Trump campaign said in a statement at the time. “Although he was not a fan of the Vietnam War, yet another disaster for our country, had his draft number been selected he would have proudly served and he is tremendously grateful to all those who did.” In a C-SPAN interview in October 2017, the late Sen. John McCain took a swipe at Mr. Trump over the deferment, saying it was “wrong” for him to have claimed to have bone spurs to avoid military service.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Displacement and immigration enforcement are like a two-headed dragon for our families,” Rios-Sierra said. The lack of affordable housing in her neighborhood, plus landlords that require background checks and fingerprinting, have forced out her Latino neighbors from the community, she said. LSNA is focusing its efforts on Hermosa, the neighborhood just west of Logan Square, where a lot of displaced residents have moved, Rios-Sierra said. “There is still a strong immigrant stronghold [in Hermosa], and we’re trying to maintain that.” She added that the loss of immigrant populations also results in a loss of culture. “It’s really sad to see residents moving in who are upset about an ice cream truck making noise in the summer, or people having their quinceañeras in their backyard,” Rios-Sierra said. “Those are things that really celebrate who we are, so it’s really hard to see people come in and dislike it and complain and call the police.” Sylvia Puente, executive director of the Latino Policy Forum, said that the drop in the immigrant population is a trend that deserves attention, but that the numbers are not particularly alarming. “This is 31,000 over 10 years,” Puente said. “It’s not 31,000 in a year. It’s like 3.000 people per year.” Puente attributed the decrease, particularly among Mexican immigrants, to a slowdown in migrants coming to Chicago from Mexico, which has had a stronger economy in recent years than it did in the 1990s. She also pointed out that the decline could be a sign of other trends, such as the upward mobility of Mexican immigrants who arrived in the 1990s, gained an economic foothold in the city, and then took their families to the suburbs. In addition, Puente said Chicago is no longer the sole point of entry for immigrants, as it was in previous decades. “They go directly to Skokie. They don’t stop in Chinatown anymore,” Puente said. “They go directly to Palatine, Carpentersville, Waukegan, Elgin and Aurora; they don’t go to Pilsen and Little Village anymore.” The Metropolitan Planning Council’s report showed that Chicago’s immigrant population decline is higher among less-educated immigrants, those without a high school diploma. The number of Asian immigrants has increased, although they make up a considerably smaller portion of the total population.)

— 8 resume mistakes that can (and will) make you look old When you’re job hunting after age 50, the last thing you want is to appear prehistoric on paper. So steer clear of these flubs. – DANIEL BORTZ (DIERSEN: How old are you? I was born in 1948. I am 70. I did yard work and delivered newspapers 1962-1964; washed dishes 1964-1966; cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966; delivered mail 1966-1969; worked on an automobile assembly line and as a security guard in 1970; sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971; pumped gasoline 1971-1972; collected delinquent taxes 1971-1980; and audited federal agencies 1980-1997. I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32.)
https://www.theladders.com/career-advice/resume-mistakes-that-can-and-will-make-you-look-old
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Mistake No. 2: You list every job you’ve ever had. . .Mistake No. 3: You brag of skills that are passé. . .Mistake No. 4: Your email address is vintage 1990s “It’s ridiculous to think something as innocuous as aol.com at the top of the resume will knock you out of the running, without a further consideration, but there is a chance that it might,” says Dawn Bugni, a professional resume writer in Atkinson, N.C. “Is it fair? No. Does it happen? Yes.” Instead of using your hotmail or AOL address from the 90s, upgrade to a Gmail account. . .Mistake No. 7: You call attention to your age Although the Age Discrimination in Employment Act prohibits employment discrimination against persons 40 years or older, plenty of 50-plus workers sense that it can be a problem. Many job seekers make the mistake of revealing their age by including their college graduation date on their resume, says Ward. The best approach is to simply leave it off. That may not solve the problem, of course. In AARP’s survey, 44% of respondents who had applied for a new job in the past two years reported being asked their age or graduation year. For tips on how to answer that and other ageist job interview questions, check out this story.)

— MANAGING AN UNDERPERFORMER – Maureen Glass (DIERSEN: To get rid of me, my Democrat superiors in the federal government always painted me as being and underperformer.

FED SMITH
— 4 Emotions New Federal Retirees May Experience – Brandon Christy (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, to get rid of me, my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government subjected me to a hostile work environment.) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hostile_work_environment). They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran.) 
https://www.fedsmith.com/2019/06/03/4-emotions-new-federal-retirees-may-experience/

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Relief provides a feeling of reassurance and relaxation once anxiety and stress have been released. Since we were young we have experienced good times and bad. Life has been full of uncertainty. The cloud of doubt as to whether or not you will make it to retirement is no longer lingering over your head. Instead, your time is yours to enjoy and spend how you see fit. This is your time. Your year. Your moment. Make the most of it. The transition from federal employee to federal retiree is not an easy one. It takes time and patience to start all over again. Essentially you are recreating yourself. Hang in there. Be aware of the emotional obstacles that you may face along the way. Enjoy the ride anyway.)

— Law enforcement, media changed standards for Trump – Byron York (DIERSEN: If you are a Trump-supporter, the more demographics that you share with Trump, a) the more likely that Trump-haters will accuse you of being a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things and therefore, b) the more reason why you should always wear a body camera.)
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/columnists/byron-york-law-enforcement-media-changed-standards-for-trump
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One of the more unfortunate effects of the Trump-Russia investigation — and there have been many — is the weakening of traditional standards of argument and proof in the public debate over allegations that the Trump campaign conspired with Russia to fix the 2016 election. (Just for the record: It didn’t.) In particular, angry disputes about the president have done terrible harm to the principle that an investigator, be it a journalist or a prosecutor, should meet at least some standard of proof before leveling an accusation.)

— Suburban Yard Becomes ‘Lake Michigan’ After Recent Rain, Homeowner Says – Chris Coffey (DIERSEN: I should write a book about Wheaton’s approval of a grossly inadequate lot drainage plan for the four-home Cove Court cul-de-sac that I live in. Wheaton’s failure to require the developer to install six instead of only two  storm sewer inlets and to properly connect four subterranean drainage lines to the city’s storm sewer system has a) forced me to pay for all nine of my home’s downspouts to be directly connected to the city’s storm sewer system and b) to spend hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars to properly connect two subterranean drainage lines, to install many storm sewer inlets, and to install lengthy French drains. As time goes on, a) more and more and more surface storm water and subterranean storm water flows onto and into my lot, b) more and more and more often my massive lot drainage improvements are overloaded, and c) more and more and more often that my sump pump runs. The cul-de-sac is a watershed area that was formerly used as a septic field for homes on the west side of Golf Lane and the north side of Frazier Court. Of course, the aforesaid dramatically depresses home values in the cul-de-sac.)

— Democrats’ Springfield message: It’s their party, and Republicans can cry if they want to Democrats are completely back in charge in Springfield, and when push comes to shove, and at some point it always does, they’re going to do things their way. – Mark Brown (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, Democrats make it clear that they will drive out of Illinois all individuals, organizations, and companies that are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, rich, gun owners, German American, draft avoiders, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. The more of the aforesaid that you are, the more that Democrats do to drive you out of Illinois.)

DAILY HERALD
— Study recommends Wheaton zoning overhaul for Roosevelt Road corridor – Katlyn Smith
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20190529/study-recommends-wheaton-zoning-overhaul-for-roosevelt-road-corridor
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Some neighbors say the study extends into what really is the west, more residential corridor of Roosevelt and oppose a proposal to loosen zoning restrictions to attract retail developments. . .Nearly 30 residents spoke out on the study this week with an expansive list of concerns. Martha Bradley, who lives on Golf Lane, stressed the importance of improving pedestrian access to the downtown. “We are a residential city, and our city planning should reflect that,” she said. “A forward-thinking city understands that pedestrian-friendly sidewalks and bike lanes are what attract new homebuyers, keep residents, increases equity for current homeowners and subsequently increases city revenue based on increased home value and an increased tax base.” Nancy Flannery, the chairwoman of the city’s historic preservation commission, worries about the possible demolition of another Jarvis Hunt-designed house, now converted into offices at 534 Roosevelt. Built in 1896, the house was one of the first summer cottages constructed for members of the private Chicago Golf Club. “Why are we letting our history be taken away from us?” she asked. Mayor Phil Suess said the city intends to hold a second planning session devoted to the East Roosevelt Road Corridor study to have consultants answer questions from council members and continue taking public comment. The study could pave the way for amendments to the city’s comprehensive plan and zoning ordinances. “This is the start of a process,” he said. “There’s no timetable associated with this process. There’s no deadline.”)

May 29 Evening Edition

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— UPDATE: The proposed Starbucks at the southeast corner of Roosevelt Road and Warrenville Road in my Wheaton precinct is off. I spoke with the property’s owner Ron Dell this afternoon. He said he was going to attend the Wheaton City Counsel Planning Session yesterday evening, but a major delay at O’Hare Airport prevented him from doing that. He said that Starbucks withdrew its proposal 2 weeks ago. Also, Wheaton has posted a video of the session at: https://www.wheaton.il.us/AgendaCenter – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
(MY ARTICLE THIS MORNING: About 120 Wheaton residents attended a 2 1/2 hour Wheaton City Council Planning Session Tuesday evening, May 28, 2019. 28 of those 120 voiced their concerns about Wheaton’s East Roosevelt Road Corridor Market Study/Comprehensive Plan Amendment. 13 of those 28 are registered voters in my precinct. Most of the comments concerned the impact that proposed changes would have on homeowners immediately south and north of Roosevelt Road, traffic congestion, affordable housing, public housing, the proposed Starbucks at the southeast corner of Roosevelt Road and Warrenville Road, flooding, the school crossing at Warrenville Road and Park Avenue, protecting historic buildings on Roosevelt Road, and Wheaton not individually notifying homeowners immediately north and south of Roosevelt Road of the session. My precinct includes the south side of Roosevelt Road between Carlton and Main Streets. For more information on the market study and plan amendment, SEE: https://www.wheaton.il.us/AgendaCenter/ViewFile/Agenda/_05282019-1184. I included a link to the notice of the session in my May 26, 2019 GOPUSA ILLINOIS evening edition email (https://gopillinois.com/uncategorized/may-26-evening-edition-3/). I included link to an online petition against the market study and plan amendment (https://www.thepetitionsite.com/981/324/570/stop-the-roosevelt-road-corridor-redevelopment-plan/) in my May 23, 2019 GOPUSA ILLINOIS evening edition email (https://gopillinois.com/uncategorized/may-23-evening-edition-3/). I included my comment that “A Starbucks is planned for the southeast corner of Roosevelt Road and Warrenville Road in my precinct” in my March 10, 2019 GOPUSA ILLINOIS morning edition email (https://gopillinois.com/uncategorized/march-10-morning-edition-4/). Sadly, many of those in my precinct who oppose the market study and plan amendment automatically assume that I completely support the market study and plan amendment a) because I am a conservative Republican Precinct Committeeman who supports Trump and b) because Ron Dell, the owner of the property at the southeast corner of Roosevelt and Warrenville, has allowed me to display 4X4 “Vote Republican’ signs on his building prior to elections for many years. Consequently, many of those in my precinct who oppose the market study and plan amendment have kept me “out of the loop” to put it politely. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always discouraged voters in my precinct from reading my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails. I look forward to reading the minutes of the session and watching the video of the session when they are posted on the city’s website.)
